Eldritch Creature's Guide

After Samiel had walked for some time, he adjusted his clothes and fixed his deep dark red hair into a ponytail. After accepting the Blood from his Patron God, his hair grew considerably longer, and he was not accustomed to it.

He sat down on a massive boulder while he began adjusting to a new world, and most importantly, he wanted to rest. While he was not physically tired, he just wanted to sit and laze for a bit. Enjoying the the fresh air properly and a whole new world experience.

Compared to Earth, the density of Mana in the air was at least 15 times higher. This was just a 1st Floor where the Mana density was lowest, as the Mana Density with each floor increased substantially.

It was no wonder that those living in such an environment would be stronger than those who don't. From what he noticed from the Akashic Records, the strongest person on the planet was probably only a Bronze-Tier because Earth was constantly on the decline.

[Winter Ruler - Ultimate Ability of the Lord Class Knight of the Niflheim. As a Knight of the Niflheim, one of the Nine Worlds of Yggdrasil, the world of Eternal Ice, the realm of Cold and Frost, a Winter Ruler can control the concept of Winter itself from freezing his enemies on the battlefield to casting Winter on entire countries or freezing whole worlds.]

This was really overpowered ability, but that was understandable. Ultimate Abilities were usually very powerful, and their bearers were destined to be great people in the future.

Knight of the Niflheim not only tremendously boosted up his Mana Capacity, but also his physique became strengthened tremendously with each Level. The reason for that was because his Lord Class focused on two aspects, physical and energy.

Contrary to his Grand Necromancer Class which focused only on the mana aspect of the growth. Most of the Classes focused either on the physical or energy aspects.

The cases, where one Class focused on both of these aspects, were exceedingly rare. And all of these Classes were high-ranked and very powerful.

His weakness in close combat was half gone with his racial change. Half only because he had greater physical strength and ability, he was still a novice when it came to actual combat.

​ Not to mention he couldn't even control his strength correctly. He was like a baby who obtained the power of a giant.

[Soul Devour - Ultimate Ability created from the Unique Class Grand Necromancer influenced by the powers of the Outer God Azathoth. Allows one to devour collected Souls, absorbing their experiences and increasing your own Level. Proceed with caution.]

Another overpowered ability, though this one came with a warning. Indeed if Samiel devoured too many souls or too strong a soul, he could die, or the devoured soul could wipe out his consciousness.

He knew the dangers of devouring souls from his patron god and what could happen if someone weak ate too strong a soul. There were many cases when someone with similar ability overestimated their capabilities and ate too strong a soul, which then possessed him or killed him.

"Now the most important thing is to hide and increase my Level, and afterward, I can go out and search for something to turn into an Undeads."

Thought Samiel as he was searching for some cave where he could hide. Right now, finding a shelter was on the top of his imaginary list of what to do currently.

Contrary to other contestants, he was at a severe disadvantage when it came to Level, as he wasn't even Iron-Tier proper and was still Level 0. So, for now, increasing his Level was on the top.

Appearetnly, an average level of climbers was 5, some reached even 7, and those geniuses from the strongest factions were peak Iron-Tier.

After he found a suitable cave, during which he needed to avoid a few magical beasts, he sat down. He started gathering Mana in his body to increase his Level. Even though he had just begun meditation, he could sense how Mana in his body was growing steadily.

For Mortals, progressing in Tiers was pretty straightforward, as it required only expanding their mana capacity or strengthening their bodies, based on the Class awakened. The path to the Gold-Tier thus was very straightforward, and only some unique things were required after that.

Thus Samiel started doing this, and soon enough, colorless energy swirled around him like a small tornado as it entered his body at tremendous speed, expanding his mana capacity and at the same time strengthening his body.

The strength that not long ago left his body was returned and even at a higher capacity than before, as Samiel felt much purer and denser Mana entering his body. This couldn't be compared to the state he was in the back.

'Dual Class and Superior Species... exciting development. Dual progress is probably because of my Dual Classes. Though my Mana Capacity is huge for Level 0, it should be comparable to at least Level 2 or 3 of species attuned to Mana, such as Dragons. No wonder the Eldritch Creatures are so overpowered.'

Several hours later, Samiel reached the limit of Level 0, and finally broke through and officially became an Iron-Tier as his Mana Capacity increased to Level 1. When he reached Level 1, he opened his golden eyes, as they had a slight twinkle in them.

On Earth, there was a superstition that magic users whose eyes could twinkle were pretty powerful, or they were just scammers who used some illusion spell to present themselves as more intimidating.

[User Samiel Zentaur has reached Level 1.]

He even got a notification from Akashic Records that his Level had increased. One could say that all people connected to the Akashic Records will get messages about even the slightest change in their Records or Status.

This allowed them to make precise observations of their own very being and choose the most optimal path of strength they should take. Of course, the benefits of a mortal being connected to the Akashic Records were even more immense.

That is because typically, the person was in darkness about his path. Still, Samiel was able to clearly observe his path even right now, as he was meditating and absorbing Mana.

'This is far from enough; before I even attempt the mission, I need to reach Level 3. If I complete the mission at the outskirts where most of the Iron-Tier Orks and Greenskins are moving, I could have it done by noon, but that would affect my rewards.'

From what he understood, the entire 1st Floor was divided into several zones, from what he got from additional information provided by the Tower System for those connected to the Records, another perk of his own.

First, there were the Outskirts. It was the weakest area where the weakest Orks and greenskins were living; most of them were Iron-Tier to Steel-Tier. This was the place where Samiel was currently located and where he was meditating. Outskirts were a relatively safe place, at least as safe as they could be with greenskins all around.

After the Outskirts, there was an Outer Area. That was the place where the majority of Orkoids lived as that was home for those at either strong Steel-Tiers or Bronze-Tiers. So a big no for him to enter unless he had a death wish. While Samiel considered himself crazy, he wished to live... probably?

And the last was the Core Area, which was located in the continent's center. That place was inhabited exclusively by Silver-Tier Orkoids and Gold-Tier Orkoids. Most importantly, it was the place where Orkish Legendaries were living as it had the highest Mana concentration on the entire floor.
